Instructor's Guides

The Instructor's Guides include complete, 36-week lesson plans and notes that integrate your children's various subjects into an exciting, unified learning experience. The Instructor's Guides weave your books and materials together into a cohesive full-year curriculum—it's your roadmap for the entire school year!

This All-Subjects Package also includes Eastern Hemisphere Notebooking Pages that help your student interact with the countries and regions you "visit" on your Sonlight F journey.

History, Geography, Bible reading and memorization

Excitement and adventure await your children in the mysterious Eastern Hemisphere—a place where 90% of the world's unevangelized people live.

Fascinating books and fun learning aids carry you to far-away places like India, China, Japan, Australia and Northern Africa and the Middle East on a quest to understand their religions, cultures and ways of life. Your children are challenged and inspired by men and women who gave up everything to carry the gospel to the other side of the world.

Help children build a firm spiritual foundation as you share daily scripture reading and scripture memorization with the included Sing the Word! CD+digital. Watch their personal journey with the Lord flourish as they develop their own devotional habits.

Includes Sonlight's History / Bible / Literature F, Eastern Hemisphere.

Literature

Sonlight offers two types of literature: Read-Alouds for parents to share with their children, and Readers for children to read on their own. The Read-Alouds offer more sophisticated story lines and rich discussion points, and the Readers offer age-appropriate reading tied directly into the history content of the program.

Language Arts

This year in 6th grade, your children will learn grammar, still-essential mechanics, how to research and work on creative expression. Their writing skills will grow as they explore different styles, learn literary analysis and take on increasingly challenging assignments.

All of your sixth grade Language Arts assignments are laid out in our Language Arts Instructor's Guide. Each lesson is scripted and includes rubrics (a simple scale so you can easily see where your child is falling on each assignment) in an easy to use format. Mechanics are explained in simple terms, and you can see realistic examples of the type of writing your children should be doing.

Includes Language Arts F.

Spelling & Vocabulary

We include Spelling You See E: Ancient Achievements as the default spelling for your children's sixth grade year. The Instructor's Handbook contains an introduction to the philosophy behind Spelling You See and the five development stages of spelling. Using the Teacher's Guide, you will work through the 36 lessons. Your children will "chunk" the appropriate letter patterns indicated for that day's lesson while also discovering a Spotlight that introduces interesting facts about words. Also included are opportunities for copywork and writing from dictation throughout the week. Vocabulary is included with the goal of helping your students develop excellent communication skills.

Science

In Science F your children use books and other resources to study anatomy, physiology, medicine and nutrition. And of course you can expect a host of exciting experiments along the way. The boy's and girl's versions of this program are identical except for a gender-appropriate book about the human body. Includes the gender-appropriate science program: Science F: Health, Medicine, and Human Anatomy.

Math

Sonlight includes Math-U-See Zeta, Level Up Set in the 6th Grade All-Subjects Package. Zeta will help your children's concepts of place value to the right of the decimal point while showing the connection between fractions and decimals. Your children will continue to learn more about place values, including decimals and how to add, subtract, multiply and divide multiple digit decimals.

Resources

A few essential resources make your learning extra rich this year. The All-Subjects package includes a 3” Binder with Tabs to organize your Instructor’s Guides. We recommend adding The Timeline Book, and Markable Map and Markers if you don’t already own them. (The Timeline Book and Markable Map only need to be purchased once. You'll be using them each year).
